3 Value Bombs
1) Time management seems like a really big limiting belief and it can seem like a really valid excuse. But that’s what it is. It’s an excuse.
2) You can do all things. It’s all in your mindset, the way that you think, people that you surround yourself with, that’s going to put the positive inputs in you to feel like you can do it and give you the real proof that you can take action today.
3) Mindset around the time management piece is really big and key because you actually have a lot more time at night than you think you do and you’re going to have to make sacrifices.
